Roos should be outright 4th tonight

[PasionateRoo]

As the current ladder stands North Melbourne are equal 4th on points. They are 5th due to poor percentage.

IF the AFL had of been fair then tonight North Melbourne would be outright 4th by 4 points. All because Sydney played with an extra player on the field, the '19th man scandal'.

If percentage provides the difference between a double chance and no double chance for the NMFC the AFL should be ashamed, because if today was round 22 then it would not be fair at all......

You cant honestly believe that? That is scraping the bottom of the barrel in regards to "excuses".

 

[giantroo]

I know where you coming from mate, but we have the chance to turn that around.

Beat the blues,cats and port and have it secured.

Sydney play the cats,pies and lions.

You would think we should get 2 wins and the swans to get the 2 losses.

 

[Cheeseman]

But you're not.

Your teams fault for not calling a head count.

 

[Dont be a lemon]

You can't be "equal 4th". You're either 4th or not 4th.

What's next, equal minor premiers!?

Your right mate, its just a shame that we are competing with cheats for the same spot. Its bad enough of the advantages they have us anyway.

Well i guess....it shows how much better we are to get there the hard way!

 

[numchuks]

We all know that Sydney had an extra man on the field, we all know they cheated a draw, yadda yadda.

Unfortunately there's nothing we can do about it now.

In a season as close as this, I think it's going to haunt you guys at the end of the year.

The end of the season after the Sirengate stuff-up for instance, those 2 points were the difference between St Kilda finishing 3rd and 6th (Freo as a result finished 3rd instead of 4th).

 

[bring it on!]

Funny how you don't see swans fans starting theads about kirks goal being counted as a point. That cost them the 2 points.

They have more reason to be shitty about the position they're in with north than north but i guess the swans don't have the victim charity case complex north do.

 

[MightyHawks]

swans aren't going to finish 4th... won't beat cats or pies. if you win 2 out of 3 you'll get 4th... if you don't win 2 out of 3 then you don't deserve it!

 

[Badesumofu]

Well, if you're that good, then you shouldn't have any trouble making a preliminary final. Past controversy aside, North are now entirely in control of their own fate.

 

[Mr--ShinBoner--#11]

i blame freo

 

[hundini]

Exactly.
It might have sucked, but there are so many what ifs in footy, you've got to get over it.

Destiny is in our hands.

Maybe because the ball wasn't completely over the line when it was touched.

True. You could also add what if we had turned up to play vs Essendon or Freo, or had put in a proper effort in the 4th 1/4 vs St Kilda.

We've also had some lucky breaks, like Brad Johnson missing that shot after the siren.

 

[bring it on!]

It was clearly a goal, if you were a rational human you could admit this.

How'd you go against Freo earlier in the year? Of course drawing against the swans in the only reason why the roos aren't above the swans

 

[McManus2Waterhouse]

Collingwood will beat the Swans.

pfft...pull the other one! But I'm not here to complain. The Roos fans do enough for everyone

From the footage I've seen, it was close, with the goal umpire in good position. A matter if opinion, if you want.

The extra man on the ground was a matter of fact.

The fact remains that the roos didn't call for a head count. Move on
